Yesterday was the first day of kindergarten for the triplets. And Tuesday, the boys had their first soccer practice. Very excited to watch them play. Rhonda and I have gone through Brad playing soccer from age 3 to a couple years in college. Needless to say, we went through withdrawals when that was over. Then we got to watch Avery play from about 3 to this year. She has topped out in the program she is in. Now the boys are going to play. Should be a fun year. Justin is very aggressive at home but not so much on the field and Connor was really going after the ball. And then there is Anna who is not able to play this year as she was at our house and fell and has a hairline fracture in her collarbone. So, no sports for her until Spring. She is a tough little cookie. It's going to be hard to keep her down for 6 weeks. She has a sling and is already running around being crazy and we are all yelling Be Careful.

The middle of August, we spent August 9-14 in Sisters, which is Central Oregon. It was a family vacation, and the older girls joined us. It was so fun getting to spend that much time with them.
They live up in Washington so don't get to see them very often.
They went tubing down the Deschutes River, walked in the Lava Caves, some hiking, swimming in the pool and of course shopping in downtown Sisters. The triplets love shopping for new Stuffy toys everywhere they go.
And to top things off Brad and Ramie have been moving into a new house. They moved from a house twice as big as this one, but they bought it because it has 5 acres, which is what they have been wanting. Hopefully, it will get them through a year or so and then will build a new house. It is still close to us in fact maybe 5 minutes closer. So, a great summer, and start to a new school year.
Thanks for stopping by.
They are just the cutest, Lin! Thank you for the photo update and activities update. It sounds like it's been a really busy and fun summer! I can understand the desire to get the acreage; lots of room for the threesome to be safe and active. And that's cool how you and Rhonda have been to all those soccer games together supporting the kids through the years! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteSo great to have an update on the triplets. Can't believe they are in kindergarten already! The years have flown by. Such great photos of the family. Sounds like you had a wonderful time away ... and a great summer. Love, Loll
ReplyDeleteThis is such a big deal to start kindergarten. I bet they will love it. Sounds like a wonderful vacation for all of you. It's nice that they are so close to you now that activities are starting. Poor Anna, doesn't sound like it's slowing her down at all. Thanks for the update, they are adorable.
ReplyDeleteThey could not be any cuter! I broke my collarbone when I was 5 and it was traumatic but that is a long story. I hope Anna heals quickly sounds like you don't have much time...LOL. Thanks for sharing. I love seeing and hearing about them.
ReplyDeleteWOW...kindergarten!!! Where has the time gone!! They look so much alike...can definitely tell they're triplets! Sounds like you've had a great and busy Summer...grands are just the best, aren't they?!! Loved all the photos.. thanks so much for sharing Lin! I love these posts!! ❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteWow, doesn't seem possible they are in kindergarten. They sure have grown and I enjoy reading your updates on them. Looks like a fun family time too. Glad you had a great summer and looking forward to a new school year.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!! Can’t believe they are in kindergarten now! They are still adorable as ever! Your vacation/summer sounded wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAwww…hard to believe that the triplets are that big already to start kindergarten! Watching them play soccer would be great fun! Certainly sounds like a busy fun summer except for Anna who is in a sling for now. I hope she heals up very soon! It’s great seeing all the photos. Thanks for sharing and thanks for dropping by my blog! Take good care, hugs!!
ReplyDeleteYou're the best grandma! Amazing that the triplets are in kindergarten now! Enjoy every moment because they go by quickly.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe the triplets are in kindergarten already! My but the time has flown! I know you'll enjoy those soccer games and hopefully Anna won't injure herself again so she can play too. How special to have the whole family together for a vacation! Fun times, my friend!
ReplyDeleteLinda I'm so happy to see the little cuties! I am having a hard time accepting that they are already in kindergarten! My daughter teaches kindergarten she is just starting her fourth year. She loves it! Soccer is such a fun family sport, a joy to watch and I understand the withdrawal comment. It goes hand in hand with missing your kids being little!
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of everyone Lin! Those three are so cute and I am glad you and Rhonda have something to look forward to each weekend and maybe even in the middle of the week to watch soccer games!
ReplyDeleteSo fun to see all the pictures! The triplets are darling, but Kindergarten already?! Poor Anna--I know what a sling is like! We just had a short vacation in Sisters--such a great area!
ReplyDeleteOh, how cute they are and they're growing up so fast! What a beautiful family you have Linda. I just posted an update on my blog as well. Hope you'll pop over for a visit.
